Cov and Mickerloo Studio, Burwardsley

COVENTRY

Friday was a busy day because after aerobics I went to Coventry to see how Dad was doing. We got a lot done, changed the bed, got the car through its MOT, weeded the front garden and swished some bleach round the kitchen and bathroom... so by 6pm we were both hungry. What good timing ... to arrive at the Toby carvery just as the new turkey came out of the kitchen. Delicious.






MICKERLOO STUDIOS

In June 2009 Mickerloo Arts opened its doors for the first time with a vision
to promote the work of exciting new artists. It had been recommended to Emma by her lecturer in glass so as it was such a lovely afternoon we went to see it.

Mickerloo Arts is
Cheshire's latest contemporary art gallery,workshops and café and is set in the stunning Cheshire countryside along the Sandstone Trail.
The first thing Drakey and I commented on was the magnificent view of the Cheshire Plain.

(And a pheasant)






Once inside though, I spotted some magnificent elephants which incidentally were the perfect colour for our lounge.






It is only a small room but the work is high quality including some pieces by a graduate from Glyndwr University.
